PNNL: Molten Salt Reactor Fundamentals

National and international efforts to develop new sources of carbon-free energy are exploring a nuclear power concept first introduced in the 1950s and 1960s: the Molten Salt Reactor. This design is vastly different from the current light water nuclear power plant and is inspiring a fresh look at the technology.

CNS Conference Paper: Fuel Cycle Flexibility of Terrestrial Energy’s IMSR

The IMSR is being developed at Terrestrial Energy as an SMR with an output of 190 [195] MWe of electrical production. The use of a graphite moderator and a highly thermalized neutron spectrum gives multiple advantages for standard operations. The IMSR also offers future fuel flexibility including the ability to utilize spent LWR fuel without reprocessing but by conversion to fluoride in a dry process.

Energies: Nuclear Power Learning and Deployment Rates; Disruption and Global Benefits Forgone

Peer-reviewed article in the journal Energies finds that had the rate of commercial nuclear deployment in the late-1960s to 1970s been maintained to the present day, nuclear power could now be around 10 percent of its current cost and could have substituted for 69,000 to 186,000 TWh of coal and gas generation—thereby avoiding up to 9.5 million deaths and 174 Gt CO2 emissions.
